Birthing the New Earth Soul: Changes and New Beginnings in July 2015

Birthing the New Earth Soul: Changes and New Beginnings in July 2015

 

a message from Archangel Michael channeled by Celia Fenn

Beloved Family of Light, July promises to be a month filled with changes, transitions and new beginnings. You will feel these changes and transitions deep in your own being, but you will also see many changes occurring on the outer or social levels. The New Earth Soul is birthing into manifestation on the Planet with the assistance of the Diamond Crystal children, and so a new society and a new way of being is also being birthed that will meet your deep desire to live at a higher level of consciousness and being.

To assist this process, the waves of TimeSpace energy in July will facilitate changes. There will be two Full Moons in July, the second one will be a “Blue Moon”, which as you know is a powerful force for bringing up deep issues that are submerged in the subconscious, both of the individual and the society. The Blue Moon itself will be on the 31st of July. The first Moon will be in Capricorn/Cancer, and with Pluto in Capricorn there are already powerful tides of transformation and change in activation. The second Moon will be in Aquarius/Leo, and will facilitate the New Earth energy into manifestation as you move towards the Lion’s Gate and the 8/8/8 on the 8th of August.

The month of July also brings you to the Planetary New Year on the 26th of July, and the “Day Out of Time”, on the 25th of July the day before. This is the moment that the Ancients understood that powerful Cosmic and Galactic cycles were completed and initiated in relation to the Earth. The Day Out of Time is that moment before the new cycles start, and you are encouraged to spend the day in playful creativity, allowing the old to end and the new to begin. Decide for yourself what you need to release and what you need to begin as a new cycle, as you enter into this new cycle of powerful New Beginnings. The 26th itself is a good time to really focus your intention and attention on what you would like to create, manifest and achieve in the new cycle of 2015/6.

Manifesting the New Earth Soul on Earth

Beloved Ones, this will be a wonderful moment to fully birth the New Earth Soul on Earth and within you! The tight grip of Economic control and hardship on the Earth is loosening, and people will begin to feel that they can breathe and move again. They will be able to focus energy on becoming what they would like to be and experiencing the absolute joy of life on a higher level of conscious awareness. This is life on the 4th, 5th and 6th Dimensions of Physical Existence, and not just in the trap of 3D Duality and struggle.

What does this mean for you, Beloved Ones? It means that you can transcend the economic prison of Time in 3D and begin to create and manifest your own timelines and TimeSpace projects. This is what it means to master the 4th Dimension. In this space you can use the flows of Time to your advantage rather than being trapped within them as most people are. You will learn to claim your own timelines rather than simply giving your time and space to the timelines of those in “control”.

Then, in the 5th Dimension, you will learn how to flow with the energy of Unity Consciousness and “Oneness”. This means that you will lose your fear of the “Collective” energies and you will learn to “surf” or ride the waves of consciousness that wash over the Planet as the Deep Consciousness of Gaia and all who live on her responds to the incoming Light Codes from the Cosmic Heart. Releasing these fears will assist you to move beyond “ascension symptoms” into a more grounded and peaceful place when the Earth is in the process of integrating these powerful incoming Light Codes.

The, as you learn how to master the 6th Dimension, you will fully activate all aspects of your creativity, and you will learn how to manifest through art, dance, song, poems, ceremonies, sacred space and many other forms of Soul Expression. Your Soul wants to sing and dance and create on the Earth, and the New Earth Soul will release this powerful creative energy that is activated by the Diamond Light Codes and will create a magnificent New Reality!

The Diamond New Earth Soul is a powerful being, whose inner light shines with Clarity, Integrity, Love, Joy and Compassion. In these waves of Change and Transition, you can work with the Diamond Light Codes to raise your frequency and reach into your deep Soul energies and birth a new Earth Being that expresses the wholeness, the Joy and the Vitality of who you really are on a deep level.

The Diamond Crystal Children are birthing in increasing numbers onto the Earth, to assist you to hold, manifest and create with these new levels of Earth Beings and Existence.

Beloved Ones, we ask you to FEEL this new energy stirring and moving within your Heart and Soul. It is not something that is outside of you, but is rather a deep longing to birth something new that arises in your Heart and is expressed by your Soul in the world. Follow your instincts, your inner voice, and your creativity! Follow the whispers and the promptings of your Soul as you birth a new way of being in the world that flows from your trust in the guidance of your Higher Self and the flow of Divine Wisdom in your life and on the Earth.

Yes, there may be pressures and tension all around you, but remember that the Diamond is formed through Time and Pressure within the Earth. So it is too that your Diamond Soul is forming and emerging from this pressure and being birthed into a new human form that is YOU! What a wonderful and joyous gift this is, and something that you can celebrate at this time!

The Global Economic Changes

Dear Family of Light, it is true that we have spoken of Economic changes, and that you have waited patiently for these. But we are happy to say that now is the time that you will begin to see real economic changes on the Earth. There are several activation points on the Earth where deep changes are occurring. The most important of these in in Greece, in the vicinity of the Andromeda Star Gate that is situated in the Aegean Sea between Greece and Turkey.

Much work has been done in these areas to allow for the flow of new energies and new ideas that are seeded from a higher level of Consciousness. In addition to the Diamond Light Codes that are transmitted through the Grid from the Great Central Sun, there are also Light Codes received from the Andromeda Galaxy that initiate or seed more creative and more harmonious ways of living, for this is the “gift” of the Andromeda Galaxy to Earth.

So, what you will see in this area is the beginning of the expression of the desires and will of the people, rather than a simple acceptance of what those in authority desire to impose. It is time for the voice and the creative will of all people to be considered in decisions. It is time for the Higher Consciousness and Will of Ascended Humanity to be expressed as a request for Abundance and Harmony for all living beings on Earth.

Beloved Ones, it is time for you to embrace the changes. Do not hold onto old ways of beings and habits of the third dimension. It is time to think beyond these ways and enter into a courageous expression of your New Earth Soul.

Embrace your inner wisdom, your power, your compassion and your creativity and Dream and Imagine that New Earth that is waiting to be created. Do not allow what others say to pull you into fear and anxiety. Do not let the Collective waves of distress become yours, but allow yourself to be a beacon of Light and Hope, and a role model for new ways of living. Trust what is and what is unseen, and know that you will be provided for in this great change and transition. Know that you are loved and supported at all times, and that you came to the Earth for this very reason, to be a part of these great changes!

Celebrate the opportunities that are given to you at this time, to full master the New Earth energies and to step forward as an empowered and creative Being of Light!

Reality-Shifting Surprises – July 2015

Reality-Shifting Surprises – July 2015

 

a message from Emmanuel Dagher

To read more of Emmanuel’s insight, please visit his website, Emmanuel Dagher

 

Beautiful Friend,

It’s an honor for me to connect with you in this way. On behalf of all humanity, thank you for choosing to be dedicated to a spiritual path that is quickly aligning the consciousness of the world with higher states of existence. It’s because of you that we are seeing things change so quickly!

The Summer Solstice of June 20/21, 2015 was monumental! It was almost as if a light switch had been turned on everywhere. There was an energetic sigh of relief that could be felt in the hearts of many.

Up until the recent Solstice, there was a great deal of overwhelm and anxiety among the collective. To many, it felt like a pressure cooker that was in need of a great release. Emotions were all over the place, and finding a sense of peace and grounding during the downpour of light we were receiving from the Sun and other celestial bodies felt distant, and fleeting.

The Summer Solstice doorway has been one that has and is helping many of us come back to our familiar self, though in a more refined way. The upgrades we’ve been showered with in the past several months are now in full integration mode.

At the beginning of July, the planets Venus and Jupiter appeared closer to one another than they have in a very long time. This is usually called a conjunction, and creates a powerful portal for extraordinary change to occur.

The Venus-Jupiter conjunction was able to redirect us back through divine inner guidance and synchronicity, toward the fulfillment of our deepest and most authentic desires.

Our path is being made fully clear; the energies are helping us know what direction we’d like to move in next. The Venus-Jupiter conjunction gave us a preview to the upcoming Venus retrograde of July 25 to September 6, 2015. Venus refines and restores the true values of life when it is in retrograde, so those six weeks will be an amazing time of beautiful expansion!

Confirmations of the Next Wave of Awakening

Back in April, a series of energetic upgrades and celestial alignments occurred that have created some of the most powerful waves of awakening we’ve ever experienced in this lifetime. It was one of those “Holy Moly” moments! But always remember, our Spirit does not give us more than it knows we can handle.

But can you imagine how those not aware of what’s going on energetically must have felt?

During an awakening cycle, every person on the planet has the opportunity to let go of old patterns that have run their course, and which may still be limiting them from expanding into a state of grace, flow, joy, and Universal abundance.

For some, lifetimes of old patterns are being released, while for others, baby steps are being taken. Whatever the size of clearings that take place, it’s all perfect.

We are now seeing concrete confirmation that the next wave of awakening is in full throttle. Whether it’s in our personal lives or on the world stage, everything is changing at the speed of lightning! Even us!

This next wave of awakening is showing up in our personal lives in a number of ways:

We are feeling a strong desire to align with all things that strengthen our connection to Spirit.

Deeply rooted memories and belief systems we’ve carried from the past are now resurfacing. (This happens whenever big clearings are underway.)

We are experiencing daily synchronicities and moments of déjà vu.

Our Inner Seeing/Feeling/Hearing and Knowing are laser sharp!

We are becoming highly aware/mindful of our surroundings.

We’re having lucid dreams that feel very real, almost as if we’re living in other worlds simultaneous to being in this one.

New ideas are blossoming that may impact the direction of our personal and professional lives.

We’re increasingly living out loud more, by expressing ourselves more fully, and no longer hiding who we are.

We’re building new soul friendships and connections, while releasing those that may not be aligned with the love and mutual support we desire.

We’re sometimes feeling a bit more moody and irritable than usual.

We’re experiencing vertigo and/or inner ear ringing.

We’re seeing a shift in our eating habits.

We have a desire to look up at the stars more often.

On the world stage, we’ve seen massive shifts occur in what it means for humanity to have respect for ALL people, no matter what their race, gender, sexual orientation, culture, or background might be.

Yes, we definitely have a ways to go yet. But big leaps have been made in how we treat one another. The collective is beginning to see that at our core, we are all the same.

More Surprises Ahead

In the coming months, many more empowering surprises will make their way into our lives and onto the world stage. Specifically, many of the seeds that are being planted now will come to fruition in October and November.

The key to receiving a surprise is to align with the flow of life. This just means that we allow ourselves to remain mentally, physically, and emotionally flexible.

The mind tends to gravitate towards structure, and can often be a bit more rigid in nature. It’s important to have a routine, but it’s also important to change things up often, to keep the mind, body, and emotions flexible and in a state of adapting to the natural flow of life.

Creating an Abundant Reality

When things change so quickly, many free-floating thought-forms start to make their rounds in the world. Because the mind isn’t very comfortable with so much change happening at once, many of these free-floating thoughts usually highlight ideas based on fear and belief in lack, which are then circulated among the collective. This is because those are the two energies the mind has been accustomed to running on, to keep itself feeling safe.

A free-floating thought-form is simply a learned pattern that circles around in the collective consciousness, and attaches itself to those who vibrate at a similar frequency.

As many of us know, lessons can be learned from patterns of lack, but those lessons usually happen in a challenging and uncomfortable way. I have a feeling that you, just like many who have been on a journey to personal healing and expansion, are ready to let go of the discomfort and challenges that go with learning lessons, especially those having to do with lack of abundance. The amazing thing about being in the energies we are in right now, is that we can learn our lessons quickly, and in an easier and more enjoyable way. This usually entails not overreacting to life’s occurrences, but rather living as the observer, where less judgment and more discernment is involved. We deserve to prosper, and experience life to its fullest! If you find your mind going into patterns of the expectation of lack, just be willing to observe what it does, instead of reacting to it. Then, find an opportunity to do something kind or generous for at least one person (preferably someone who is not very close to you, so that expectations are not created between you). You can do this at the local cafe, with a volunteer group, or wherever you’re able offer a kindness to someone.

Then watch how quickly the Universe begins to open up doors for you. The first pattern many people go to when they get into a lack mindset is, “Where can I cut back on some of my expenses, especially on the things I don’t really need?” Then the first things to go are the things that are probably nourishing them the most. This pattern only perpetuates more lack, rather than shifting it.

So when “lack” comes up, instead of letting go of something that nourishes us, let’s immediately find an opportunity to be of service in our local community through our time, gifts, and energy.

You’ll see how quickly the energy of lack will dissolve!

With all of that said, we are living in the time we’ve all been waiting for, the one our ancestors spoke of thousands of years ago.

A higher consciousness is kissing the mind and heart of everyone on the planet! Yes, even those who may appear to still be operating in the old energy of separation are being impacted by it in some way.

It will be just a matter of time before they too soften into the wave of awakening that is now sweeping the world.

Till next time,

Emmanuel

The Witches Magick for the 7th day of the Mead Moon – Phyllorhodomancy Spell

Phyllorhodomancy Spell

 

In ancient Greece, rose leaves were used for divination. This is called phyllorhodomancy.

After dark, go outside and pick a rose leaf. Thank the bush for the leaf. Now, take a few deep breaths to clear your mind and center your awareness. Think of a question regarding love that you have. Keep it simple. Focus your attention on the question for a couple of minutes. Next, slap the rose leaf on your hand by holding it in your power hand and slapping it onto the flat palm of your receiving hand firmly. A good clear sound is a positive “Yes” answer. A muffled sound is a “No” answer.

Lady A’s Spell of the Day for July 7th – The All-Purpose Payback Spell

The All-Purpose Payback Spell

 

Choose the All-Purpose Payback when you want to “do unto others as they did unto you.” It’s a quid pro quo that will directly return to your oppressor the harm he’s caused you. That’s why it uses a figurine: it represents your “cursee.” That’s also why you can’t use the All-Purpose Payback when you’re feeling put upon generally or when things aren’t working out, and “someone’s got to pay.” Have in mind someone or something specific whom you’re paying back. Have in mind as well what he did to you, and focus on sending it straight back to him.

You will need:

A white candle

A small saucepan

A long match (a fireplace match is good)

Wait until dark. Melt a candle in the saucepan over low heat.

Remove the saucepan from the heat and wait until the wax is cool enough to handle. Shape it into a rudimentary figurine, working quickly so that you’re done sculpting before the wax starts to harden.

Strike the match under the ends of the figurine, first the feet and then the head, and drip them into the saucepan. You don’t need to melt them much. As you do, slowly say your victim’s name three times.

Extinguish the match between the thumb and third finger of your left hand.

Dispose of what’s left of the figurine by burying it in the ground. Replace the soil, level it, and dispose of the wax in the saucepan by reheating it to melting and pouring it on top of the soil.

Your oppressor is now at your mercy just as you were once at his/her’s, and exactly the same way.

Let’s Talk Witch – Candle Magic Basics

Candle Magic Basics

 

Candle Magic has been around for many years. It’s an easy, yet powerful form of magic that can help you apply the energies of the body with the powers of the mind to obtain your desires. Some candle magic may have to be repeated over a period of days. Therefore, you will want to place your candles in an area that will not be disturbed. It’s best to avoid rooms with a TV, radio noise or disturbances of any kind. Candle magic should be performed in a low traffic area whenever possible. A bedroom is often ideal for such work.

As with all magical tools, the candle made by the practitioner for a specific purpose captures the energy of the practitioner. Some prefer to work with beeswax candles, as they believe these are more powerful because they are produced from nature. But any type of candles can be used for candle magic. Just remember to cleanse and consecrate them prior to use.

Cleansing removes all the negative energies that the candle may have picked up along the way. You want your candles to be as free of psychic debris as possible. Submerge the candle in salt (sea salt if possible) and then ask the God and Goddess to bless it. No formal words or ritual is needed. Simply speak from your heart.

Many Wiccans like to dress their candle with oil. Use whatever oil you prefer. If your candle will be burned to bring something to you, rub the oil on the candle in a downward motion from the top to the middle and then from the bottom to the middle. To send something away from you, rub the oil from the middle of the candle out to the ends. Never make a back and forth motion as this defeats the purpose. Dab the remaining oil from your fingers onto your third eye and on your breastbone. Then say the following:

“I cleanse and consecrate this candle in the name of the God and Goddess. May it burn with strength in the service of the light.”

State and/ or visualize your intent for the candle as you light it.

Some will also inscribe their candle with a name or word to represent its purpose. If you have an Athame, you can use it to inscribe your candle. The same principle as dressing the candle is used. To draw something to you, write from the top to the middle, and then from the bottom to the middle. To repel things, write from the middle to the ends. Next is a list of traditional candle colors used in magic, with a brief description of their most common magical uses. White candles can be used as a substitute for any color. Keep lots on hand!

Celebrating Other Spirituality 365 Days a Year – The Consualia and Festival of the Pales

July 7 and 8

The Consualia and Festival of the Pales

It is believed that the festivals in honor of Consus were possibly to celebrate the harvest. Consus had an altar in the Circus Maximus in Rome that was kept underground. The altar was only exposed on July 7 and August 21, with burnt sacrifices offered in July by the Sacredotes Publici (state priests) and in August by the Flamen Quirnalis (priest of Consus) with the Vestal Virgins in attendance.

The Festival of Pales, held on Nonae Caprotinae (nones of the wild fig), was a feast of serving women held in honor of Juno Caprotina.

 

Tuesday Is Ruled By Mars

Tuesday Is Ruled By Mars

 

Tuesday is a Mars day, and just like the god of war, this is the time to tap into magicks to call for strength and courage. This day of the week is for rebels and warriors. If you are facing a challenge of any kind, need a boost to your courage, or want to enhance your passions, Tuesday is the day of the week for you. Some suggestions for Tuesday enchantments would include:

*Wearing the fiery colors associated with this day: scarlet, red, black, and orange. Don some of the more daring and bewitching colors of your wardrobe on Tuesdays and turn a few heads

*Carrying a bloodstone in your pocket or wearing garnet-studded jewelry to reinforce your convictions

*Working with protective and fire-associated plants such as the snapdragon, thistle, and holly to boost your shields and bravery

*Burning spicy-scented energy-enhancing candles to add a little magical aromatherapy to your home

*Cooking up a hearty meal featuring carrots, peppers, and garlic (all Mars foods and spices) to empower yourself for victory and success

Tuesday

Tuesday

 

A god, goddess, or planet governs each day of the week. It is usually easy to spot the ruler of the day by its name. The word Tuesday, however, is not so easy, but if we look at the word in Spanish, Martes, we clearly see its connections to Mars.

Because Tuesday revolves around the energy of Mars, Tuesdays are good for business, mechanical things, buying and selling animals, hunting, beginning studies, gardening, sexual activities, and confrontation. This is a day for sex magick, energy, stamina, and health. As in the old saying, Tuesdays child is full of grace, is also good for success magick and defense against enemies.

Angels of Tuesday are Camael, Samael, Satael, Amabiel, Friagne, and Hyniel. When invoked, Camael takes the form of a leopard. In Druid mythology he is a god of war, which is why we see him associated with Mars. Camael is said to be a member of the “Magnificent Seven” in some circles. Camael is another “terminator” angel.

Samael walks both worlds as a magician and sorcerer. some see him as the angel of death, others as “the bright and poisonous one.” Many consider him more of a demon, and accuse him of being Satan. However, there is reference to the satans (plural) as enforcers of the law, a sort of angelic police, if you will. Supposedly, when Samael is around, dogs howl in the night. On one hand, he is the ruler of the fifth heaven and in charge of two million angels; on the other, he is the one who changed into a serpent and convinced Eve to partake of the forbidden fruit of knowledge.

Satael is an angel of air invoked in magic rites and is the presiding spirit of the planet Mars. Amabiel is another spirit of the planet Mars; however he spends his energy on issues of human sexuality. Friagne, also an angel of this day, is invoked from the east. He is a member of the fifth heaven. Hyniel also belongs to this day and is subject to the east wind.

On Tuesdays the hour of sunrise and every eight hours after that are also ruled by Mars, and that makes these times of the day doubly blessed. These four hours are the strongest ones to do ritual in. Check your local newspaper, astrological calendar, or almanac to determine your local sunrise.

A Very, Very Good Morning To All Our Dear Brothers & Sisters Of The Craft!

We Are Witches All

 

We sing and dance and hold our rites,
We live and love together.
We go sky-clad or wear our outer robes
If it is chilling weather.
About the altar we do dance;
We praise The Gods
We love and ever do, we give
Our thanks to the sun.
And moon above, We are The Craft;
Love The Craft; We are Witches All.
Join us.. In Our Circle For We Are Witches All.
Walk into our Circle and feel the love Bound,
And Meet The Lord and Lady who guide us in our Rounds;
” An’ Harm None, Do What Thou Wilt.”
It is The Wiccan Rede.
We fear no foe for love we show,
In thought and also Deed.
Our words of thanks, our songs of praise,
We offer them in pray’r.
We sing their praise, we ask their help;
We know that they are there.
